a shop in town is putting together a mini starter for me, the one he gave me yesterday didnt fit so i took it back and he said it fit his 455 Olds!!!!, and SAID THAT BUICK AND OLDS STARTER ARE THE SAME!!!, i said well it dont fit and showed him my old stock started for comparison, so he said he will order a different kit. AM I WRIGHT IN THINKING THERE IS A DIFFERENCE?????
Interesting When I pulled the 350 olds out of my 67 the starter is on the opposite side of the engine. I guess it would work if it had the right nose piece on it.
different, I have a 70 455 cutlass and a 70 455 skylark. Olds starter is on drivers side and of course you know buick is passenger side so big differnce. Allen
Olds (except Toro) and Pontiac=same starter, on Driver's side Buick and Cadillac (Except Eldorado) =same starter, on Passenger side Olds Toronado and Cadillac Eldorado=Same starter, on Passenger side, bolted to TRANSMISSION Chevy=World of it's own.
